Crazy to see high budget shoots where you can afford a freaking robot and here I am with my clients asking me "Why do you charge us for music, it's Royalty FREE! Isn't it supposed to be FREE?!" 😂
First favorite documentary to come to mind is Supervention by Field Productions (might be a bit more than 10 years old now) definetly still worth seeing if you’re into winter sports and grand mountainscapes🙌🏻
It's funny how they described this space as an "ugly location". Coming from Latin America, I see tall ceilings with lots of space to put fake walls, diffusion frames, even a robot arm, clean walls, and a modern and minimalistic design like a clean canvas perfect for set-dressing. Here you really have ugly and awkward locations, tiny spaces, low ceilings, strange and horrible designs and finishes, and sometimes not even access to elevators, we have less budget, less rental options, and no fancy robot toys. And don't get me started on natural lighting, we don't get the blue and golden two-hour sunset you get in the northern hemisphere, we have horrible lighting throughout morning and afternoon being in the middle of the Equator, plus a really gorgeous but 10-minute sunrise/sunset... We do have the beautiful beaches and rainforest though...
I was going to say kind of the same. The place is not ugly at all, not so beatutiful, but not ugly at all... And the lighting didnt even impruved it a lot. Just a normal looking place with normal lighting at the end... Nothing to be surpriced at.
That commercial turned out soooo good despite the creative challenges. I come across many undesirable locations when I shoot commercials and this video was really helpful.
I really like how you brought in windows to help with lighting and production value!! Such a valuable little nugget of art direction!! Also I need an AC robot arm. 😂
It's amazing all these spec commercials for big companies and they don't use the damn thing. These commercials are 40x better than corporate level basic and sometimes weird commercials. I hate commercials... until I ran into this one lol
That "I believe this, so it works". I recently did a shoot where we emulated rain and put the Godox SL100Bi on lightning to sell the effect, but the lightning was flashing from inside, but hey, it sells haha!
It's interesting that he pointed out the shot of the camera following the coffee cup up to his face as being a uniquely hard shot. I didn't put that together while watching but it felt distinct and attention grabbing.
At BTS I saw at least two Lightbrige reflectors one crls 100 that seemed to be more a key light next to the Dyno650c for ambient fill and at least another smaller one next to the window. As you didn't talk about them and they seem to have played an important role in lighting the scene, what is your opinion regarding their use?
Just curious, was s trinity operator considered? Because it can do those wild movements like vertical jib moves, dolly ins and everything in between. Certainly not as repeatable as the robot, I guess it just boils down to that and what the cost difference would be.
Seeing the robot arm I always wonder if they have failsafes. Like, a small programming error or glitch could send that heavy Arri straight through an actors face. Do they have DJI-Mavic like sensors on the front to check they're not accidentally getting sent into a wall or human? And I know it's programmed, but everything can crash/have errors.
hey bosS i luv ur content but why is ur headshot tow person interview feel so AI from the colors and texture? (are u useing a wired beatyfilter in post?)
Michael Jordan’s documentary on Netflix is hands-down the best documentary I’ve ever seen. I like basketball, but I’ve never followed it that deeply, but that documentary really sucked me and it was perfectly told.

🤣
A plain room is like a blank canvas, so much potential IF you can put in the work the payoff is more than worth it.
Alright, but why there's instant coffee dripping from an coffee maker?
Same reason there is music in the night in a forest :)
This has to be one of the best BTS videos in terms of showing how it’s done and it was very entertaining. Thank you.

MOCO shots are so butter.

This was amazing! Can you make a video about the color grading of this?
@10:34 focus puller hating their life lol

20 days in Mariupol was one of my favorites
I discovered Nick's work recently. Blown away. This was gold🎉🎉
The Last Repair Shop was a great documentary!
Mark! This is stark! Thanks so much! 🫡💛

great stuff in this video, love the cinematic eye too, I have learned a bunch from that course!

Great video! Icarus was my fav doc of the decade. Or My Octopus Teacher.
Loved Icarus!
Very valuable insights! Thank you!

Same here - I knew I liked the shot - it drew me in -but I didn't know why until he explained it
I really enjoyed "Struggle: The Life and Lost Art of Szukalski" documentary :)
Excellent piece.
favorite documentary for the past couple of years has got to be Capturing the Friedmans (2003) or The Jinx (2015)
I know it’s a murder mystery, but i absolutely loved Tiger King

I don't see this video in the course, Mark.
Hard to pick the last 10 years, but Spaceship Earth about the Biosphere 2 was most recent. And the Arnold Schwarzenegger doc was good too
Good Job Guys!! ❤🔥
Dang…hard to pick a favorite of the last 10 years. Last one I watched may have been the short series on JR Smith or actually the Steph Curry one.
Darn. I can't enter. I have no filmmaking friends to share with. 😢

Favorite documentary which I watched more then 5 times is Pumping Iron (1977). So?
Very nice 👍
I’m curious how much set design you did besides the one flat with the windows.
Great content Mark.
I might have missed it, but was there ever a point in this that they talk abt how the 2 coffee cans are lit within the cupboard/shelves?
What's the price of that CineBot? 100k USD? More?
The. Biggest thing here is the production design team puting those fake windows there. That’s something I rarely do
hey bosS i luv ur content but why is ur headshot tow person interview feel so AI from the colors and texture? (are u useing a wired beatyfilter in post?)
No post filters. Perhaps it was just because we used a mist filter on the camera that day
How to tag 3 flimmaking friends. Have no flimmaker friends here 😇 any other options for this?
